Thoughts

1) Who came up with rap "music?" No, really. Who decided "hey, I can't sing at all and I'm going to make a career out of it?"

2) In a similar vein, who came up with punk music? Who decided "hey, I can't play my instrument at all and I'm going to make a career out of it?"

3) Stop listening to what he says. Look at the people he's appointed. Look at the world leaders he's supported. Look at the allies he's stabbed in the back. Obama's the most left-wing President the country's ever had, and he's earned that position in months. What's this country going to look like in 2012?

4) 2009 deaths I give a crap about: Patrick McGoohan, Andy Hallet, Les Paul. End of list.

5) If everybody chose not to drive for 24 hours, people would die. Food wouldn't get to where it was needed.

6) You can have "clean" energy, or you can have your plains and deserts unmolested and your view unobscured. You can't have both.

7) You can't have only clean energy. It's just not viable.

8) If no band/artist that hadn't released an album by 1980 were allowed to release an album after 1980, we'd a) miss out on a couple of awesome bands and b) live in a much saner world.

9) ACORN should be dismantled and every politician with ties to them should be thrown out of office. We wouldn't have a viable government anymore, but we'd be better off.

10) If the government really wants to lower the cost of anything, they should get the hell out of it.
